I found these two items together last week.
Paid about 150 euro's for them.
Both came from an old lady in Elburg in the netherlands, she had them in her shed since the war:
RB&co klappenschrank from 1940. Never been opened since the war and unfortunately stored upside down in water/moist. The cover is rusted, but acceptable. the klappenschrank itself is very nice and untouched. The lettering on the tabs seems American/allied to me, so maybe it's been reused when the allies "liberated" it. Nice to find out which units liberated Elburg in 1945.
The Phone is also from RB&co and from 1939. it's missing the lever but it also had, like my last two phones, a nice Original battery in it's compartment from pertrix. The horn is from 1943 and most likely from Mende.
The last pic is my communication collection build up in 1 year (these new 2 pieces are not on the pic). Now I definately need the other stuff like the amtzusatz, the storage bags and cables.
